Difference between JVM.DLL and Java.DLL

843829Aug 9 2005 — edited Aug 9 2005
Hi
Please tell me the difference between java.dll and jvm.dll. I have a windows executable that uses jvm.dll to start the JVM. But when i go to the directory where these dll files are kept, i could find only java.dll. So i used java.dll and the executable doesn't work.
So, what is the difference between jvm.dll and java.dll? Can these files be used in place of the other?
